[DID NOT ATTEND: February 1, 2024] Frost Children / Mother Cell
When this show was announced I grabbed a ticket pretty quickly. I had seen Frost Children open for Yves Tumor and their set was wild and super fun. I knew I’d want to see them again.
I also loved that they billed the show as Frost Children with special guest Frost Children. They were going to play their two new albums (which sound very different) as if they were two bands.
But when I listened to the new albums, they were far more sedate than when I’d seen them live. And, actually, I wondered if their show, which felt so big to me could translate well onto the PhilaMOCA stage.
Then I saw that they had another opening band, Mother Cell. They are described as a rhythmic noise pop band, but when I listened to the two most recent songs I found them far more mellow and poppy than noisy.
Since the show was sold out and I’d been to four shows in the last few days, I decided to give this one a miss. I’m actually planning on going to fewer shows of young, noisy bands like this. So we’ll see if that comes to pass too.
